It’s A Polka Dot Birthday Party!

Polka dots! If you don’t love this timeless pattern then…well…bless your heart. It is one of my faves so when Jennifer McAdam of Jennifer Lynn Events sent over this absolutely darling 2nd birthday party, I was smitten. It’s adorable. Even better? It features budget-friendly details like homemade treats, lovely cupcake toppers, bright balloons, candy, + so much more! What a bright and colorful way to celebrate a birthday! Speaking of…. mine is November 19th… I want a polka dot birthday!

When Jennifer wanted cute cupcake toppers, she knew just who to go to – Brittany of Edible Details! Jennifer shared, “Once we decided on colors, everything fell into place. The printables, banner and hats were created with vibrant colors and supplies {such as ribbon}, we already had these items on hand.”

Jennifer: “We used our own cake stands and filled small containers with gumballs {found at Michaels and on sale for $1.99}. The guests received handmade gift bags that were filled with candy, coloring books and crayons. We used a party hat template, that we’ve used for previous parties and simply glued a ‘pom pom’ on top to give the hat an extra ‘pop.’”

To make the marshmallow pops, Jennifer took marshmallows and made edible glue candy to put the dots on. Then put a lollipop stick inside and ta-da – super cute polka dot pops!! I also love the kraft bags with polka dot details. What an easy + fun DIY!
